this is a sad story. i dunno what happened to it but it was out back next to the dumpster of a local distributor in my area. It was totally gutted and I had to fit it with all of the mspac stuff i had but it looks good. I need to add new t molding and touch up the paint on the mspac side but a custom cp and cpo based around the reunion theme are on there way.   Thanks to a little help from Chutltutktltuke ;)  I need to learn photoshop one of these days  >:(

anyone have any comments or questions?

thx again d88

You can probably just order a reunion control panel overlay from Namco. It is a current game and I imagine they still stock the parts. I wouldn't bother with a reunion marquee though, the quality on those are terrible (they really truly look like an inkjet print).

I'm glad to see you saved that one from the junk yard.  Good luck with you project, looks pretty darn good.

nice work!

what did you use to restore that top corner? could you go into detail? bondo? putty? i'm in a similar situation, and yours looks like it came out pretty good. thanks!

I'm pretty clueless about this reunion cab, where is the fire button for Galaga?

He has a reunion cabinet with an original Ms. Pac-Man control panel, thus no fire button.

A reunion machine control panel has it to the right of the joystick.

the corners were repaired by sanding down the break smooth and cutting a peice of new wood to fit in the broken spot. then cut the t-molding slit and thats it.. now I need to take the color codes and get some paint to finish the mspac side.  

yeah its all mspac stuff now but I would like to go with the reunion theme.
